I've seen the n9 and read about the n950, I've read through the threads, but I'm still not sure.

Ok, so is the TRUE Successor of the N900 DEAD?

Despite my broken USB should I cherish my N900, the last true open portable linux PC, with cell phone functionality...

Somebody give me hope!! Will there be a successor of the greatest portable consumer communication/information device built to date?

Yes, it is dead.

There might or might not be a successor, nobody knows at this point.

But one thing is absolutely sure -- if the successor comes, it will not come from Nokia.

No this is a thread about Nokia just introduced a N series phone that is argueably less functional than the phone they made 2 years ago.

Did someone say complaining thread? Cool!

Who gives a sh*t about the keyboard (happy n800 owner here), where the f*ck is my built-in stylus, stand, stereo speakers and d-pad!?

Thanks for letting me share. I love this place!

Oh, and before I forget. The n9 looks awesome! I'll probably get one if they let me

(I'm in the U.S.).

Later!

Ahhh the N800... the last great stand made by Nokia. It was freaking awesome!

It must be said though, the n810 stand blew it away; 3 positions (the right ones), not just 2. And the n810 screen, again, in a league above the n800. But the built-in stylus position of the n900: perfection (if you're right handed).

Nokia, you so crazy.

The N950 is the successor.
